CERCLL and the other fifteen Title VI-funded Language Resource Centers will be at the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) convention in November. There are several ways to learn about us there!
Exhibit Hall Show
Visit us in the exhibit hall in booth 4638, Friday November 17 to Sunday November 19, 2023, where all sixteen of our centers will have materials on hand to let you know what resources and professional development opportunities are available now, and what’s coming soon!
Exhibitor Workshop:

12 of the LRCs will be on hand to answer your questions about our resources!
From the ACTFL Program: Did you know there is a national network of Language Resource Centers devoted to improving the teaching of languages? Discover the many free resources and professional development (PD) opportunities LRCs have to offer for K-16 world, DLI, heritage, and indigenous language educators. Find the information you need from one (or all!) of these sharing stations offered by LRC representatives: 1) Research & Assessment; 2) Digital Tools; 3) PD; and 4) Teaching.
Regular Session:
Free Standards-Based Language Teaching Resources from the LRCs
Friday, November 17, 10:00-10:45 am
McCormick Place – West Building, Room: W181c
